Went to the grocery store, noticed my car was pulling hard to the left. Sure enough, flat tire! Note, it's 0 out before the wind chill, -20 when it's blowing.

Gas Station #1: Air hose appears to have a weak clamp on the hose so air leaks out where it and the nozzle assembly meets. Tire won't fill, hands freeze. Gas station attendant denies all responsibility for doing anything about it. Tire status: dangerously low.

Gas Station #2: Pump is just weak, period. Tire won't fill. Hands freeze. Tire status: Critical.

Gas Station #3: Finally find a pump with more air pressure than a weak fart. Spend about 10 minutes alternating between filling the tire and getting in the car to warm my hands. After 3 rounds of filling, the tire is fuller but still low. It looks like a major leak. So I limp home on it. Meanwhile, we're supposed to get major snows tomorrow or Monday.

*sigh* This is like the 3rd flat tire I've had in two years. Getting sick of this shit.

Note: tire shops (Belle Tire, Discount Tire, et al,) will fill your tires for free. Discount does a lot of stuff for free.

Doesn't do me a lot of good at 2am in the morning. (Yes, I like to do grocery shopping in the dead hours of the night.)

Fucking sinuses!

Goddamnit... Always making weekends suck due to constant terrible feelingness.

Healed at a Pokemon Center in Lost Woodsumiose City and promptly turned off my game.
Without saving.
Shortly after gaining access to Lumiose's boutique and beating the gym.

[Sirus]

OUCH

[Darvi]

Aaaand that's why I save everytime anything happens.

That includes walking out of doors.

In a BG in WoW, Warsong Gulch Capture the Flag. Things are going reasonably well, we've gotten two caps against the Alliance's one, then, with five minutes left on the clock they cap and turtle, resulting in us being unable to get the third cap and losing the game because of the pants on head retarded tiebreaker system, which just gives the win to whichever team capped most recently.

I am sick. I have the flu or something. All my joints hurt. Everything is either too hot or too cold. Bright lights and loud noises hurt. Heck, thinking hurts. And the worst thing about it: I can't fucking sleep. I've been lying awake in my bed, trying to sleep, for at least 18 of the last 24 hours. Every time I feel like I wake up, it's only 10 minutes since I last checked the alarm clock. And there is literally nothing I can do to ease the boredom that won't make my head hurt like hell.

The other worst thing about this is that I have an exam tomorrow. I can't get enough rest, I can't study. And to top it all off, I can't unregister from the exam without doing a 3-hour commute and filling out an unregistration form in person.

GAH*coughhack*HHHHH.

Oh noooo.... I hope you feel better soon, Magma....

Have you tried any drugs for it? Painkillers or fever relief or something?

[Dutchling]

My grandpa told me morphine is the best thing in the world ever.

Just so you know.

[Dutchling]

Which is too bad. I'd totally do morphine if I could. Grandpa never lied to me.

Although I sort of doubt his story about getting kicked out of a Salvation Army because he suspected one of the lieutenants of being lesbian.

Ibuprofen might help. It's a pain reliever and can help knock any fevers down.

On an unrelated note: It's 2014. Why are keyboards still not beer-proof?

[Frumple]

They make waterproof keyboards.

Most people don't have problem with spilling booze on their precious electronics, though, so the feature isn't standard.

Wrap it somewhat loosely in plastic wrap. Problem solved.
